He drops in with about 120 km/h doing a great groundeffect, touches the water and ending with a precise landing. Guido is one of the most talented hanggliding pilots in the world.

I reached speeds of 60 mph. I also included footage of some aerobatics of a spin and a wingover.]]> Sat, 23 Jul 2011 03:19:59 GMT http://www.wikidelta.com/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,369/task,viewvideo/video_id,168/  I put this online because it should serve as an informational video to anyone doing wingovers or loops. I felt very comfortable doing wingovers and never had any scares before. For this one, I was planning to do a wingover to the right. I had enough speed but immediately after initiating the wingover (which I did a little to abrupt), my body was swung to the left which stopped the wing from turning and sent me more into a loop than into a wingover. I didn't have enough speed for that, or didn't realize my error quickly enough and the result is what you can see. I'm not proud of this. I probably was overconfident and made a stupid error, which I didn't correct fast enough. A big thank you to Metamorfosi and Woody Valley, the chute-harness combination worked very well. Enjoy flying.
